Tulum Archaeological Site
Carretera Federal, Cancun - Chetumal Km 230, 307, Tulum 77780 Mexico
Tulum (Spanish pronunciation: [tu'lum], Yucatec: Tulu'um) is the site of a Pre-Columbian Maya walled city serving as a major port for Coba.[1] The ruins are situated on 12-meter (39 ft) tall cliffs, along the east coast of the Yucatan Peninsula on the Caribbean Sea in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico.[1] Tulum was one of the last cities built and inhabited by the Maya; it was at its height between the 13th and 15th centuries and managed to survive about 70 years after the Spanish began occupying Mexico. Old World diseases brought by the Spanish settlers appear to have resulted in very high fatalities, disrupting the society and eventually causing the city to be abandoned.[citation needed] One of the best-preserved coastal Maya sites, Tulum is today a popular site for tourists.[1]

Cenotes Dos Ojos
Tulum 77780 Mexico
A pair of connected underwater caves that are part of the Sac Actun cave system, Cenotes Dos Ojos is a popular spot for diving and snorkeling. Sunlight seeping in from the crater above reveals impressive rock formations and makes it easy to see the diverse marine life, including colorful fish and sea turtles. Swimming is also enjoyable in the cenotes, great for younger children, with life jackets available for hire. For the best experience, opt for a guided tour that starts earlier in the day before the crowds arrive and takes you into the deeper parts of the cavern. – Tripadvisor
